"I cannot fault my Health Visitor at all - she has been amazing."

About: Motherwell Locality Support Service / Community Nursing Team

(as a parent/guardian),

Since 2019 I cannot fault my Health Visitor at all. She has been amazing.

My son hasn't had an easy start in life, with health and if it wasn't for her help my son wouldn't be where he is today.

 As she taught me I need to fight for everything and with her support we got there and my son has had the best care. And the best start for his needs. 

Not only a support to my son but to me as well, as at times I was breaking inside with everything but didn't show it. But just being able to pick up a phone and airing my concerns and be told I'm not loosing it was a huge comfort.

I always put everyone first, and never myself, only took 4yrs to take a telling I need to put myself first from time to time as no one else will. So I'm grateful for that advice.

Honestly never get rid of Health Visitors as they are a huge support to families, anything they don't know they find the answer and get back to you.

I will be sad to see mine go when my son turns 5yr and heads off to school.
